Discover a hotel-village
In Savelletri di Fasano, on the Adriatic coast, the architect and designer Pino Brescia was inspired by the colors and materials of a traditional village in Puglia to create the Borgo Egnazia, an atypical 5-star, member of the Leading Hotels of the World.
With its white stone building, the Corte, housing sixty-three rooms and suites, and its ninety-two small white houses strung out in a maze of alleys in the shade of olive trees, fig trees, bougainvilleas, this Melpignano family property looks more like a village than a hotel.
Twenty-seven villas with garden and swimming pool offer the necessary privacy for those who wish it.
